We need to cut and repair our window sill. It's about 3-4 inches thick with some concrete on it. Will this saw work you think?

NO............blade cover is only about 1 1/2 inches above table so it limits thickness.

if it is stone or concrete yes it will work. If it has and kind of wood no it will not.

it can only cut to 1/2 the with of the blade if you removed the blade cover and install a larger blade it would

I am certain it will. I have cut through some high tensile heavy duty decking nails and fasteners that are much thicker. You must remember that it is a vibration action tool so hold your workpiece well.

I think this saw would work for you, just keep your fingers away from the blade. I bought mine to use to cut metal strips to use in stained glass projects. Good luck.

It will but not easily. I purchasing for the same thing and because the tiles were very small I frequently cut my fingers. Wasn't long before I went out and bought a wet tile saw which is what I should have done in the first place. This cutter is best used for solid one-piece tiles.

yes, just have to be careful. It has been quite handy. I have successfully cut molding around a window. I also trimmed door molding to open up for a new floor board. Just fine. the tiny vibrations are intense, but not too violant like a recip saw!! With a steady hand, it is quite possible. I would not use thie for large jobs.

It can do it but if you will be making frequent holes of this caliber i would suggest a Milwaukie hammer drill. But these do everything I need except drill through concrete slabs.

I don't know. Probably not unless there is a special blade to used. Blades are small and delicate. Can be used to cut cement board.

The saw is capable and has plenty of power, depending on you putting the correct blade on it, it will do fine, assuming that you are not cutting 1" hard steal.

Definitely. So far I have used the saw to rip (cut lengthwise) and cross cut edge glued red oak panels greater than 3 1/2". It's a handy little saw.

absolutely NO. the saw chips small tile. I had to get a wet saw to do my tile work

Have never used tool for 3/4 flooring. I do not think it will work with that thickness

I purchased this saw to cut through pave stones up to 3" thick....and it does it well.

I used it to dry cut pavers and termite block. Anything over 4 inches thick is pushing the limits of the blade.

I have only cut standard-weight stained glass and glass tiles with this tool. I'm guessing that it might not be effective on anything heavier.

It will work, but it is a big heavy tool. I use mine to drill concrete and mix thinset(the real reason I bought mine-I burned out two 1/4 drills mixing thinset). I use a Bosch battery powered drill for all other jobs.

I don't know if it will cut concrete. I used it to cut glass. It might cut concrete, as it has imbedded diamonds for the cutting edge.

I'm sure it could. I've cut through 2 x 4 stock (which is 1 1/2" thick) many years ago with a very much lower powered and lighter weight jig saw. Just go slowly, use a sharp blade, and let the saw do the work without forcing the cut.
